The Andover Board of Visitors of I he
Andover, (Mass.) Theological Semin-
airy, has voted to dispense with the SER
vices OF President E. G. Smith and his
adherentslin the faculty of Andover Sem
mary. They were tried someImonths ago
for teaching doctrines contrary to those
laid down by the founders of tho uni
versity. Their chief points of offense
were in denying the plenary Inspiration
of the entire Bible, and holding that
there is probation for the sinner after
death. Tho board of Visitors to-day
found Prof. Smith guilty, but failed to
sustain the indictments against Prof. 5.
Tucker. The office of Prot. Smith is to
be declared vacant. Prof Smith's
associates say the matter will be car
ried to the Supreme Court, and that
meantime, as the Trustees are with
them, aud superior to the Visitors, Prof.
Smith will continue to teach as hereto
fore.

THREE EFFECrS.-Th thousands
of remarkable cures which have been
accomplished by Hoods Sarsaparilla
are due simply To the three effects
which this great medicine has upon
those who take it:
First. 1t purities The blood.
Second. 1t strengthens the system.
Third. 1t gives healthy action to the
digestive organs.
With these three effects no disease
can long retain its hold. 1t is forced
to leave the system, giving place to
health and strength, through the potent
influences of Hoods Sarsaparlla.

Ex-freSident baScom and the Regents
President Bascom has published in the
Wisconsin Prohibitionist an article ITO
the Good People of Wisconsin" in which
he reviews the thirteen years of his pres
idency and gives his opinion of the Re-
gents. He says that during this period
the interests of the University have, in
his opinion, very materially suffered from
the unfortunate composition of the
Board of Regents. I'm these thirteen
years." he says, ''there have been thirty
four regents. Four of these have been
er-o6Tco members of the board. Four
of them have been farmers, appointed
chiefly to watch over the interests of
agriculture. OF the remaining twenty
six, eighteen have been lawyers, seven
business men, and one Immediately in
terested in education"
Every few of these men have shown
any peculiar knowledge of higher edu-
cation, or any deep interest in it. They
have come chiefly from that circle to
which the rewards of political activity
are wont to fall. There have been, on
their part, no such breadth of repre-
sentation, no such interest in, or knowl-
edge of, educational work, no such
personal culture, as to obviously justify
their appointment; or as to make the
highest educational board of the state
one of commanding influence and
assured usefulness"
The chief difficulty. he says, has been
that the board has felt and acted as
political rather than an educational
body. That its members. being men
engaged actively in politics, have
brought with them the feelings, motives
and methods there acquired.
+. w. Reyes has been elected
and reelected chairman Of the
executive committee, the most inn
portant Office in the gift of the
board, for the past eight years. He
has been more conspicuous and impor-
tant than the entire board besides" He
therefore stands for the board, and his
acts are their acts. Over his shoulders
the regents are scored IN the plainest
language. Personally, too, Mr.. Reyes
is shown in a most unfavorable light.
The article is too long to give to our
readers entire, but we commend its pc
rusal to all who are interested in the
University. If there is another side to
this question let it be shown up. If not
it is to be hoped that the Alumni and all
friends of the institution will rise up and
wrest the control of the ''grandest
institution of the state" from the grasp
of politicians, andcommit its manage
ment to those whose qualities entitle
them to the trust

OUR MANAGER s TRIP TO WINDSOR

Our Business Manager, in company
with the Band, was presant at the laying
of the Corner Stone of the Court House
in Windsor, Saturday last, a full account
of which will be given in onr next.
Saturday night it was his pleasure to
attend one of the most delightful enter
tainments ever given i'll the town and
participated in by the heme ladies and
gentlemen. It consisted of tableaux
and music of rarest beauty and excel
lence. Among the performers. notably,
was Miss Rosa M. Kenny, whose match
less voice and superb acting would win
for her, on any stage. the fitting cogpo-
men of Star" in all it's fullest mean
ing. -.--.-
He stopped with Mr.. Moody than
whom but few better Landlords live.
His unremitting exertion in behalf of
pleasure for all will ever be kindly re-
membered, and his unlimited contribu-
tions, making sojourn delightful i'll his
place, will be fully reciprocated should
the lot of life ever make him able or
furnish opportunity.
Windsor presents business appear
ance quite in keeping with other towns
in the East, and her people look as if
Madam Fortune had not yelled her
benignant face or secreted her smile
when, in her course, she paused to note

He hopes to visit the place when the
Court House is finished to admire the
beauty of the structure and to mingle
again with the kind generous and most

THE State Fair reunion of nOn-res.
ident North Carolinians promises to
be most enjoyable feature. Many,
we understand, prominent residents
o. other States who have been invited
will be present, will gather once again
around the hearth, so to speak, of
their native home and mingle again
their familiar voices in the sweet
converse respecting the familiar
things and incidents Of the past which
have swelled history into mighty
book crowded with noble deeds, grand
achievements. and brilliant evidences
OF an universal onward. It is pleas
ant when, at stated times, the seat.
tered family, once happy in supposed
perpetual union, can be brought to
mingle again around the fireside of
their old home, to live over, for o
while, the long past which has been
lost save only to memory in whose
exercise facts and faces as well as
occasions are thrown out upon the
surface feast to the eye of mind and
q JOY to the soul filed with love of
home and just appreciation of the
friends OF other days.
In this reunion there will be much
TO recall which will doubtless awake
reflections sad beyond description.
Many faces will be missed. The
names OF many will be mentioned who
now sleep in soldier graves awaiting
the final transfer when the batalions
of earth's mighty force will pitch
their tents upon Edens fields clothed
in the immortal armament of heaven.
Some will be absent whose deeds Of
love and wisdom, whose mighty
speech and fearless convictions have
made their names conspicuous in the
Incompatible catalogue of true great
ness. Some will be missed to whose
bright example of christian heroism
and self-sacrif1ce the onward of the
Church-that essential in civilizA-
ton, is, in great measure. humanity
speaking, due. Some will be missed,
statesmen, whose spotless charac.
ter and unrivalled ability gave luster
to the States reputation and whose
arduous efforts paved the way for the
